Have her do it for you...              1. I would need the spec. for the used newsreader, searching for it        costs too much time.              2. I fear that I would have to use "C" or "C++" for such a plugin,        languages I don't want to use. They're used already too much.              3. Asking you to obey to the nettiquette in this newsgroup seemed much        easier, but since you want to keep your ego-style it doesn't work.              4. Why waste the CPU power to reverse the order in postings if it could        be done the way the vast majority (as you must already have noticed -        I'm not the only one to ask you to change this nasty habit) would        like it to be right from the start? Do you program in such a way at        work? (means do things somehow and at another place reverse it, even        I you colud have it produced reversed already in the first place        without additional ressource consumption?).              5. You aren't from the U.S.? They do consume too much ressources (like        wasting energy...)              Greetings              Markus              PS: I hope I did give you something to think about, but I fear you       won't/can't...sorry to say.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
